INTRODUCTION
Hello I started this blog to share some of the beautiful and creative things that can be made from recycling wood.
I intend to post pictures of some of the many beautiful things that can be made from wood that no one wants anymore.
I hope I can inspire you to initiate similar endeavors. Curb Wood Art is a registered trademark of Thomas Paul Murphy
Best of luck.

PRIMARY COFFEE TABLE

This coffee table was built from repurposed wood from my father’s antique desk that was in ill repair, as a tribute to him and his teachings to me but also with the Milwaukee Public School system.The contrasting cross sectionals of this old growth oak and poplar make this one of the most beautiful pieces in our house.The legs of the structure came from wood bought at the Habitat for Humanity Resale shop.

About Me

Welcome to my Blogs. My name is Thomas Murphy and I love the forest and wildlife areas of Wisconsin and would like to share my thoughts and the pictures I have taken of the natural areas of Wisconsin.
Come share in my collection of what I feel to some of the finest scenes and images of the forests, lakes, rivers and marshes that Wisconsin has to offer. I like to go to pristine and secluded areas where nature resides quietly and I feel the resulting “lost” images are profoundly unique.
I am usually “in the moment” when I take these pictures. When I say in the moment I mean a sense of excitement often precedes what my eye captures through the camera. I never stage these shots but seem to be in the right place and time when I shoot them.
And when I transfer them from my camera and view them on my computer screen I realize a sense of surrealism that resonates with me yet again to the time they were taken and exemplify the beauty of nature.
Please peruse my sites and experience the beauty of being there as I did.
